The HT-RT5 has the power and frequency range of a standard Home Cinema System in only four boxes, so you can save on space without compromising on sound.

Home cinema, your way

The wireless design of the subwoofer and rear speakers gives you the freedom to put them wherever you like – they just need power. Try out different spots until you find the perfect setup for your room. The sound bar’s low-profile design means it looks at home anywhere, wall-mounted or in front of your TV.

You can place the rear speakers on a table.
